Hi there folks,
This is just a friendly reminder for what this community is about: warning artists about bad commissioners, warning commissioners about deadbeat artists, asking questions about how to avoid being a bad customer/artist, posting the occasional good comment about exceptional artists/commissioners, and any other similar topics relevant to both artist and commissioner such as good business practices etc.
This community is NOT for: airing your personal vendettas with individuals, complaining about harrassment by another person (unless you are engaged in some kind of business or trade transaction with them), or making vague references to past transgressions without providing full, relevant details.
Do NOT assume that just because you have posted here previously, everyone will know what you are talking about. If you are posting an update on a previously posted warning (over a week old), DO link back to the old entry. We do not have collective memory and we can't understand your complaints if they're not written in plain English (or English to the best of your ability if it happens to not be your primary language).
Most people have been following this pretty well; I'm posting this because I've had to reject several entries in the past few days because the problems reported are very vague and it's unclear what the actual complaint is (or if the complaint holds any merit).
Thanks.

You're welcome to post again, as I said, if you're more specific about what the problem is, which includes NOT bringing up uninvolved parties.
And don't feel real bad, you're not the only person whose post wasn't approved
